Your UST Computer Account
The use of online library resources
from off-campus is controlled by your
UST username and password. This is the same username and password that you use to access
your UST e-mail and other network resources. You must know your UST username and password
(and it must be currently valid) to use the EZProxy Server.
(All questions regarding your
UST computer account should be directed to the Tech Desk,
651-962-6230, or by
email irthelp@stthomas.edu)
